My fantasy: After the salesman says (for the 4th time), "Sorry, the manager won't approve that price, but if you could add X hundred dollars, I'm sure I can convince them!", I wait until they are through high-fiving each other and then tell the salesman "Sorry, my trust manager didn't approve that price. I'm sure I can convince him if you lower the price by X hundred dollars".

My reality: I use my bank's car-buying service and pay the bank's negotiated price.
